  title: Package claims external to package identity
  statement: Package author claims, review claims, build claims, test claims,
    storage claims, and compute claims shall be external claim documents that
    reference package CIDs. Claims may be distributed in package bundles,
    catalogs, provenance stores, or replicated documents, but they shall not be
    part of the package document used to compute the package CID.
  rationale: Claims should accumulate without changing package identity.
  verification: Adding a test claim does not change the package CID.
  testable: true
